• Script to wait for Clone task is completed

  Good day, as part of the post, I run a command that enables the NIC and sets the right Port-Group of cloning process. I put a sleep command in each environment is diferrent, so I find myself always change this duration of sleep because the cloning process does not end in the time of sleep and the rest of the script fails. So in order to get rid of the sleep control that I want to capture the CloneVM_Task and pass this parameter to wait-task that will force the completion of the ClonVM_Task. I could just make sure no other tasks are running but this task, but as we all know that alays can't be the case. So that's what I did.

  I begin a deployment of FVO to have an another long running task. Then I run the script.

  I'm new to Powercli and I've scoured Google for a possible answer. I thought I might have a solution that has been published on the VMware PowerCLI Forum, but I couldn't get this to work. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  #########################################

  I wasn't worried about how to tasks where splits, unless I was trying to follow the import fo the OVF, so that the script went into the loop If and as one of the names for CloneVM_Task then he Treaty. But I got the same error I did in the last version of the above script. That's why I have the version curent thinking that if I exported and then imported the tasks it might make a difference.

  I'm new to Powercli and would like a little help. I am either very close or by a mile off. :-)

  Thank you

  Mitch

  Why don't you store the the task object that is returned when you use the RunAsync switch?

  You can create a loop around the State and wait until the clone job is done.

  $task = New-VM -Name MyVM ... -RunAsync 
  
  while($task.ExtensionData.Info.State -eq "running"){
    sleep 1  $task.ExtensionData.UpdateViewData('Info.State')
  }
  

  The big difference with the Wait-job cmdlet, it is that this will allow you to perform additional work in the While loop.

  Waiting-task the cmdlet waits just until the task is finisned and you can not do anything else.

• Stuck "waiting for the printer to be available."

  After initially looking at it's going to print, the printer dialog box displays "waiting for printer to be available" and it's there (even if the printer - inkjet HP series C3800 - is ready).

  Here is what I tried:

  Using the HP utility software on the same computer, I am able to successfully print a test page, which rules out a problem with the printer and its connection to the computer.

  Printing worked normally before moving on to the Sierra. I tried resetting the printing system and add new printer (Sierra recognizes very well). I also tried to run in case disk utility have a permissions problem.

  I'm stumped at this point. Help much appreciated.

• Hi8 thru cam HDV into FCP 7: waiting for timecode

  Hello

  I have a bunch of Hi8 tapes I want to capture on the drive by running through Sony CCD-TR400 on the Canon HV - 20 MBPro & FCP 7.

  I can see the execution in the window capture, but when I hit capture now it gets no further than "Waiting for time code."

  I guess the Hi8 analog, but hoped the Canon with its AV > DV option would treat his way through.

  Any ideas?

  Is the only way to do this would save on tape dv on Canon HV-20 and then capture the disk?

  The best

  Elmer

  Hi8 uses only consumer re-writable (CCFC) timecode that is not readable by the PCF.  In the FCP capture settings, set "Device Control" device not controllable and then use Capture now capture rather than in batches.

• "waiting for encrypted google" does not allow me to open a Web site

  When I try to open lifenews.com, which I visited many times, there is a message saying left down "waiting for encrypted google." I don't even use google chrome? I don't know where to go to get rid of it, I don't want nothing blocked unless I specifically ask to be blocked. I did the research, said it's a blur, said another security settings to uncheck the ssl2 and ssl3. Nothing works. Can someone tell me please how to remove this thing waiting for encrypted google.

  You said blur, which is an add-on. Use the blur, or any extension of similar content filtering? If you think one of them might be the problem, you can test Firefox Safe mode. It is a standard diagnostic tool to disable extensions, hardware acceleration, and a few other advanced features of Firefox.

  Does not work if Firefox: Hold down the SHIFT key when you start Firefox.

  If Firefox is running: You can restart Firefox in Mode safe mode using either:

  • button "3-bar" menu > "?" button > restart with disabled modules
  • Help menu > restart with disabled modules

  and OK reboot.

  Two scenarios: A small dialog box should appear. Click on 'Start mode safe' (not update).

  Any improvement?

• Extend my extreme network with another extreme - waiting for internet access

  Hello - I have a new generation Airport Extreme (let's call it Extreme1) connected to a Comcast modem and it works very well. The extreme will be the router that the modem has no router function. I'm trying to expand my network to another room with another extreme (let's call it Extreme2). I have a connection cable between two rooms. Extreme1 has an ethernet cable from one of its LAN ports connected on port WAN Extreme2. When I try to create a new network with Extreme2 (in aid of the same name, passwords, etc.) it does not work. He was suspended at the end when he is looking for a connection ("Waiting for internet access")-I did the following things based on what I read here:

  1. Changed IPv6 link local parameters
  2. Tried the whole upward on my Macbook and tried on my iphone
  3. The Wan first and then tried to change the configuration after you done for Extreme2 by creating a network
  4. Tried to create a network with Extreme2 connected directly to the modem
  5. Extreme2 factory reset after every attepmt

  And nothing works. Kicker is, I also have a reasonably new airport express and the same thing happens to her as well.

  Do I need to adjust some parameters of network that I'm not aware of? Is it possible that my LAN ports are disabled on Extreme2? It is brand new.

  Thanks for any help.

  Have you used the Apple Setup Assistant?  If you did, it had notified you that the extreme second was being configured "add using Ethernet. The wizard will automatically configure the second airport with the appropriate settings for you.  All you have to do is enter a name of device for the second AirPort Extreme.

  Here I'm assuming that you reset the second extreme to parameters by default until you set it up again and that your second Extreme is the current version of the "tower" or that of previous versions "flat or square.

  The example below shows an AirPort Express as the device which is the extension of the network, but you will see the name of your network and AirPort Extreme on your configuration screen.

  Post back if you need some tips on using the "Wizard" for your configuration.

• iPad 4 blocked mode recovery, itunes waiting for ipad

  I've had my IPad for over two years now and it worked great. But yesterday it just no longer lights. I don't know weather it auto-updated or not, but it became all black. I tried to reload, but the screen remains black after hours of load. The combo of home button and lock 10 seconds also does nothing. I plugged into my Macbook so and tried Itunes. ITunes says "ITunes has detected an iPad in recovery mode. You must restore this iPad before it can be used with iTunes. «So I press ok and restore the iPad, software is extracted and it said "Waiting for iPad...» "for a minute. The next thing is the error message ' the iPad could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (4005). "I tried several times with different cables and USB ports... I don't know what to do anymore.

  I'd be happy for something useful!

• Still waiting for the new Satellite U840T-102

  We sent the laptop in the subject to support Toshiba in Italy on 5 May. File n. 73040100. After a few emails June 20, we received the proposal to change the product and sending us a new.

  We have NOTHING yet. Our clientele is more waiting for two months for a WARRANTY SERVICE.

  Is this right? It is the policy of TOSHIBA?
  CAN WE HAVE A CERTAIN DATE?

  I understand you very well buddy.
  It s always pity if the laptop is not working properly and if something needs to be replaced.

  I think there is a reason for the delay and I recommend you contact the ASP in Italy once more in order to clarify this matter.

• Should I buy a MacBook Pro now or wait for the WWDC

  Hello

  Well, I want to buy a MacBook Pro (my first one ever). However, I have read on some sites there is a new version of the MacBook Pro this year (at WWDC).

  Now I'm totally confused. I want to use a MacBook Pro 15 "(8 Go de RAM et 552 Go SSD) to work on large data / Business Intelligence technologies and programming."

  But I don't know if I have to wait for these new features or go ahead and buy this one now. And if these new features will be most useful for what I want to do.

  Thanks in advance.

  Apple has specifically discourages discussions on these forums about what and when the new products will be introduced and what changes there may be.

  The best advice is, what your needs are and this current model meets the.  If so, buy it, if not, don't buy it.   My observation of past changes in the introduction of new models is that the changes are incremental, not radical.  My primary MBP is a 2011 model (with 16 GB of RAM and an SSD hard drive) and I still do not feel outclassed by the current culture.

• waiting for device root

  Hello

  I'm getting the "waiting for root device" when trying to boot from a bootable usb key. Is this a problem with my hard drive or usb key. The mbp does not charge beyond that, so I'm not able to use the utility disc or AHT.

  The mbp needs a disc hard work to be able to boot from usb?

  Thank you

  a MBP A1150 is a 15 "2006 MBP.  It will support the maximum OSX 10.6.8 is suggesting to your profile is already installed.  If the USB Installer is a more recent OSX, it can not be installed in your MBP.
